1. How have we learnt Geography in GIS-based lessons?

2. Form 1: Map Reading with GIS

3. Lesson 1: Electronic Map Start with what they are familiar with Centamap, Google Earth Locating their school and home Start with WEBGIS

4. Websearch using Google Earth

5. Lunch time training every week by a senior form student

6. Familiarizing the software prior to class learning

7. Teaching map reading in class with the use of textbook e.g. conventional signs, scales Briefly explain what GIS is in class –electronic map is a product of GIS –concept of layers Integration into Map Reading Lessons

8. Using GIS Basic operation of computer E.g. copy and move folders Using ArcMap Open a.mxd file Familiar with the tools in the tool box Zoom in and out Add and remove the layers

9. Briefing on Mapping Task Drawing and Text tools Layout view Task: Wah Yan Redevelopment –An old building is to be pulled down –New building to be built

10. Using GIS with Teacher’s Assistance Editing tasks: –Create task –Layout view Modify tasks: –Scale –Legend –North Arrow

11. Working with Student Helpers

12. Editing and Modifying Feature

13. Students’ Map Layout

14. Form 6 Urban Study on Retail Shops’ Spatial Distribution

15. To study the spatial distribution pattern of retail shops carrying goods of different orders To investigate the factors affecting such distribution pattern To understand the concept and calculation of mean centre and standard distance as statistical analysis methods. To use GIS as a tool to handle spatial data

16. Hypothesis Higher order goods are spatially more clustered than that of lower order goods.

17. Recording Data with PDA

18. Locating the Convenient Stores

19. Data Processing using GIS

20. Calculating Mean Centre and Standard Distance

21. Trouble Shooting

22. Spatial Statistical Results

23. Project Learning: Community Map Inter-school Competition

24. Relationship between height and age of buildings

25. Role of GIS in learning and teaching Geography A tool to facilitate learning Not the major subject matter Integrated into ordinary lessons

26. Significance to record spatial data accurately to process and present spatial data efficiently to arouse students’ interest with the use of information technology as a modern way of handling information

27. Learning beyond classroom

28. Sharing techniques among schoolmates

29. Students’ sharing: Benefits? Difficulties?

30. Thank You!
